[@WiredforCrappie]

Found some floats guys. They are sold out in most places. These guys are charging a little much for them, but it shows they have 38. Here is the link. m.bonanza.com/listings/thill-gold-medal-stealth-4-3/904772092?goog_pla=1&gpid=76984044181&keyword=&goog_pla=1&pos=&ad_type=pla&gclid=Cj0KCQiA2sqOBhCGARIsAPuPK0j3UyRVWfNMXKDdhENp-Uv8W0p5smnp8vND4xxQrBOlNGF1O4uoDckaAiEoEALw_wcB

Sorry again guys, I have been using this float for several years now. Should have known finding fishing tackle right now stinks.

[@jamesjackson1612]

Almost 20 bucks for a bobber at that site!! Id be swiming for that one first time it got hung up

[@Byron4RollTide]

Matt, Rod-N-Bobb's has had that style bobber for a little while now. I like the way they lay over when the crappie takes your minnow.

[@bobbyedwards9766]

Awesome video Matt. Learned a lot on that slip bobber set up. Made me a believer!

[@WiredforCrappie]

Thanks Bobby, glad it helped

[@c.s.3746]

They're pretty proud of those floats after pricing them. Great video!

[@jonstokes3122]

Great show! That is a fantastic float! Need to look into a Bubs daddy air pump for the minnow cooler . They are so quiet you can barely hear it run!

[@2005Pilot]

Perfect timing!! and Awesome Info! Thanks man 😊👍👍

[@ppdrawings]

Nice catches man! I hope the weather warms up again and I will definitely be using this stealth bobber next time I get to slip float. Thanks for the info!!

[@brandonlynch3722]

What size float is that, Matt?

[@lonniehall9006]

Thanks for the info, ky

[@gordonbohannon1111]

awesome video, great info. Keep it coming!!!

[@WiredforCrappie]

Thanks

[@michaelporrazzo1180]

great video love to bobber fish keep up the good work

[@GAFisherman]

Never seen that bobber before. Looks like a great choice. I think your problem with the rubber bobber stop is the "microwave guide.". I've never had a problem with the rubber stops going through my rod eyes on to my reel. The string stop always comes untied regardless of how many half hitches I put on it.

[@matthewharvey2698]

That is a slick float. I quit slip floating for crappie because of the issues you mentioned and the line not going down etc. this is a nice bobber that I can see working well. Where can a man get one? Doesn’t seem like a lot of options online. Thanks for sharing!

[@helicopterjohns]

Many thanks for an informative video. What is the specification on the line you are using? lb. test, color, manufacturer. Thill makes that model float in 4" 1/16oz, 1/8oz. 3/16oz also in 5" 1/4oz and 3/8oz. Which one are you using? Thanks in advance for any additional information you can provide.

[@2005Pilot]

Think he said 1/8oz

[@enduringpatriot]

Great and really informative video! Enjoyed every bit of it, even when you started calling the minnow a worm! LOL! Two questions: I couldn't tell in the video, but were you hooking the minnow thru both lips or just the top lip? Also, which do you prefer, thru the lips or in the back of the back below the fin? I do both, but have not personally seen an advantage to either, except maybe the back hool keeping the minnow alive a little longer.

[@robertbailey8570]

nice information where did you get the bobbers at

[@scottwinkler9810]

Where can I buy the Thill Stealth Float they seem to be sold out most everywhere?

[@robertjohnson7926]

Where can you buy one of these bobbers. Great video thanks for sharing

[@patrickcordery1635]

Hi i wanted to ask ehere did u get theses bobbers ato line

[@Kmurray9244]

Alright, so for many of you that have learned that the Thill Gold Medal euro bobbers have been discontinued... let me elaborate if I may. For one, the name Thill comes from a wonderful gentleman that I had the honor to meet and fish with in Chicago by the name of Mick Thill... Mick spent many years in England learning their methods of fishing and used that knowledge to advance bank angling in the USA.. His Chicago Bank Anglers was a wonderful but little known organization. I still fish with many of his and current models and methods of fishing that is all but unknown here in the US. The floats that were in the Thill Gold Medal euro line were and still are used and in production to this day... just not here in the US! Because we are dummies. The stealth is a simplified version of a waggler, actually a pellet waggler... which is still made in a more durable(plastic) and even more advanced model by drennan, and Matrix, I believe Cadence has some, probably Middy, but Preston Innovation and Drennan are probably the two best.. Other "bodied wagglers" such as the Thill Gold Medal TG Bodied waggers are also available, just not much in balsa anymore... but the TG Bodied waggler and even the Shy bite Gold Medal floats are all exceptional. Google Drennan floats, google Waggler fishing; Avons are also great crappie floats, as are the smallest Pikers and if your into some serious Ultra light fishing check out the pole floats, and pencil floats (which is what the shy bite floats by Thill were modeled after) None of this is new, or rare, just not known here in the US.

[@WiredforCrappie]

This is flat out awesome info. Thank you for sharing 💯

[@Kmurray9244]

@@WiredforCrappie Not a problem, I wish I could have the impact on the world that Mick had on me... I still buy a lot of my fishing gear from the UK ha ha... however the economy is S*!T If you check FishUSA they have Drennan Loafers and Crystal Avons that I love and use most often to this day. Both are intended for moving water (trotting) but both do well on standing waters... the Avons if shotted properly do very well in choppy or wind blown waters, and the loafers are great for more or less still/ less choppy waters. The Pikers are also great but more expensive, but also have the option of through the top style "slip bobber" method as a rigging option. I'd love to help in anyway I can... just an old man with a love of fishing..

[@Kmurray9244]

On a side note... if you want to have a great time, experience the centrepin reel or the elasticated pole ha ha... the attention I get on the water with either of these is quite debilitating ha ha... I end up explaining and talking more than fishing .. but I love being able to open some people up to ideas they never would have known otherwise.

[@MrSethlovesut]

Can’t find these online. Where do you purchase these stealth bobbers?

[@curtisanderson5742]

Wired Great stuff . Which model Garmin that u have . ??

[@timothythomas3820]

Hello ! Mr. Matt. I want to buy me some of them floats that you are used in this KZbin video who sell them and what size to buy for crappie please. Thank you so much . 🙏🙏

[@paulusher1185]

Do they break easily, I’ve read some comments they do.

[@joshsanders7150]

buying some stealth bobbers now!

[@michaelj8067]

Can't find the floats anywhere, did you actually pay the high price tag of almost $20 - $30 per float?

[@wesley7202]

I use the comal styrofoam slip floats

[@2woods2water82]

What size bobber was that?

[@kkce1111]

Those bobbers $$$$$

[@johnnysuttles3942]

Know the feeling

[@lonniehall9006]

I bought one of each size and could not believe the price.

[@WiredforCrappie]

I know right, they have stopped making these and I wish they hadn't. They always discontinue the good stuff. Sad!

[@bobbyt6987]

Called around today. No one has any. Believe they have been discontinued.

[@WiredforCrappie]

I know it. So sad!

[@mikejenperkins7795]

Are these bobbers really 18.88 each that’s way to much

[@WiredforCrappie]

No, the unfortunately discontinued this style. I’m still upset about it!!

[@lonniehall9006]

These are super expensive, I am going to turn my old ones into floats like these, by drilling holes in the bottom, and they will be 1/8 the cost of these.

[@WiredforCrappie]

Great idea!
